Hello y'all my name is Chris. I recently purchased a used Grain Comfort Corn Stove and it worked great. Well one day I had circulating fan issues which I fixed. One day my auger started making a groaning/grinding noise. So I removed auger and clean it up and cleaned shute as well. Next day I noticed that my auger would kick on and off like it should as well as turn. But 1 time it will drop a few kernels, 2nd turn drop like 15, 3rd about same give or take as previous. Then next 2 or 3 turns it would drop any. Now before my auger noise it would drop 5 or 6 kernels every 10 seconds every single turn. Is there something I can do to get it feeding properly? Or do I need to look into replacement. Thanks in advance

Sounds like a normal feed to me

I appreciate it. I'm new to all this and anyone else I know has pellet stoves not corn so wasn't exactly sure.
Just wanted to update. I adjusted my feed timer that runs auger at a set time and it's feeding about 5 to 8 consistently and maybe once it twice in a 6-8 cycle it'll drop a few more or a few less. So it was all normal as you suggested. Thank you so much for easing my mind.
